Jim,
You seem to be trying to lead (or else mislead?) us to presume
that you viewed the original.
Yet, I cannot help but notice that you do not actually tell us
that you did so. Only a "possibility",huh?!
As fair witnesses to your statement, we cannot be sure of what
you're actually saying.
So please clarify: Did you or didn't you? Yes or no.
If so, where, when, and under what circumstance did you view the
original, and were there any witnesses present who you could
name to substantiate your claim?
